- FFFriendlyNeighborNov 17, 20251.0I have never had a haircut so horrible than the one Melinda gave me. It was very uneven and it was a poor consultation. She just cut my hair without asking what I wanted. I do not recommend Great Clips
- KBkaran basuNov 8, 20255.0Got my haircut from Ms. Melinda, she was amazing, great professional and a great woman. She was so sweet and kind. I love the haircut I got, my girlfriend loved it too!!!!! Will 100% go back to her. What a wonderful human being!!!!
- GPGeorge PowellOct 24, 20251.0Do not go to any Great Clips. I have a Great Card which guarantees me $10.99 haircuts that never expires. Except the card is now useless because it appearently unofficially expired. It is now my responsibility to prove that I have my card which the employees at Great Clips have seen in person. I am now required to jump through hopes so I can prove my Guaranteed Card actually exists. If I some manage to jump through these hopes there is no "Guarantee" that I will get the $10.99 haircuts i was guaranteed to receive. I have a feeling Great Clips does not understand what the word guarantee means.
- ENErik NewsholmeOct 21, 20255.0Consistent haircut no matter which location. I was recently in Wilmington and long overdo. I checked in online and was taken care of proper with a proper high n tight haircut.
- JHJessica HarrisOct 17, 20251.0New in town so I went in for a trim. I told the guy I wanted no more than 2 inches cut off and even showed him how much to cut off. Ended up with about 5 inches cut off my hair. The stylist did not listen and cut what he wanted off my hair. Lesson learn. I will never return here again. After a lot of thought I should have never paid for a haircut that I was extremely unsatisfied with.
